Special to the Gazette.
LITTLE Rock, ARK, Jan. l0.-The leg
islature met at noon to-day with an at
tendance of 127 members, thirty-two
senator's and nlnty-fye representatives.
". II. Halliburton was elected temporary
speaker of the house, and D. E. Barker
pres ident of the senate. More than ordl-
nary interest is manifested in anticipat-
ing legislation. Bills repeating
the mortgage law of the state
and providing for rev con-
stitution, will be introduced Immediately.
The measures relating TO mortgages pro-
poses a radical change in the matter OF
furnishing supplies for planters and Ia
borers and revolutionizes the present sys-
TEN which has ever prevailed since Ar

posed to abolish the bond of the state

ing such officials crininally liable for de-
ticits.

Elections upon his honesty and integrity
have been openly discussed by the men,
bers of both houses, and Charles Pollock,
an ex.cle,k in the auditors office, states
that he had an understanding that he
would lose his position were he not to
comply with the request of Mr.. Walker
that he pay him monthly $50 out OF his
salary. Notwithstanding this positive
assertion, however, the auditor denies
that it is truth and will ask the legisla-
ture TO appoint committee to investi-
gate this and other charges against him.

AUSTIN, TEX, Jan. 1O.-The senatorial
lightning seems to be coquetting behind
the gathering storm of contest, and the
political weather prophet predicts that
we will have regular cyclone of time
before the final stroke.

she whispers that Lieut.-Gov. Gibbs'
friends and Congressman Weliborn's
friends are grooming them in the dark
horse stables, so that they may DE equal
to any emergency that may arise during
the senatorial race.
Indications point to favorable COnsid-
Grafton of relief measures fol the drouth
sufferers. We have been unable to find q
single member of either house opposed
to it. The only question seems to De the

engage the entire attention of the leglSla-
ture during the early part Of the session
we give the following from a reliable
source: On the first ballot Ireland will
lead, Maxey second, Reagan third and
Terrell last. Every ballot taken after

and strengthen Reagan.

considered as an able solution: OF the
drouth question, and hsve attracted
favorable comment among
the members.
The abuse of the seven section act of

called attention to this fraud. it is re-

There is ample business here for anoth-
ser bank, and Mr.. Voolfolk was we'll
pleased with the outlook. He returned
to louisville on Wednesday, but will be
in Little Falls again in a week or two.
The desire to have Little Falls business
men take stock in the bank is to get
them interested with the Louisville
people in building up new enterprises
here, and all who can should own
shares in the bank. There is 4 possible
bility that Mr.. Maxwell, who is now

Minneapolis Lumberman: There
will be comparatively little logging on
the Rum river this winter. The fact that
the entire stock cut last winter has been
carried over will prevent much if any
thing being done. All the Anoka mills
have their stock in the stream and win
probably get logs within a week or ten
days after the river breaks up. Their
saving season will in consequence com
